Does anyone else love driving in the fog?

Anyone else?

So, my friends think I'm slightly crazy because I love driving in thick, heavy fog. Living in Fresno, CA it is very common in winter time. It's just such a thrill. Adds something extra to the typical drive home. It's both exciting and scary. It's amazing how much you think you know a town, and when there is nothing to reference, how you anticipate a light that's really 100ft away and not 20ft away.

THough to be fair, I don't think I'd like to drive a road I don't know in heavy fog.

Know the road or not, a 150 lb deer through your windshield will kill you regardless.

x2 on that. We get a lot of fog where I live and I hate it, especially driving in mx-3 that has crappy stock lights and sits so low.

I recently drove though the heaviest fog I have ever seen: visibility less than 50 feet! I was headed back home from near San Francisico and it was on a main highway (5 North) but it really freaked me out... since you don't know what's coming or who's coming up behind you. The first fog patch was on a straight section, but the second fog patch was through Grant's Pass (really curvy section through the mountains)... not that great

The one good thing about it was I got to use my rear foglights (for their intended purpose) and as far as I know they were effective since no one ran into the back of me

I don't mind spooky fog covering the landscape but when you are driving in a 70 mph section of hwy... not a fun experience...

I actually know a girl who was involved in a low visibility accident...

Some moron had stopped (or been moving stupidly slow, its unclear) in the middle of the highway lane, no 4 ways, nothing. The car she was riding in plowed it at 100 kph. They managed to get out before the car burnt to the ground, but she'll be in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.

Who says that couldn't be you next time you're cruising through the fog "feeling on the edge".

It's all fun and games until you hear a foghorn...or see one of these...

i didnt mean to cause a stir. About the deer, we dont have any where i live, so i needent worry about them and when i do drive on the fog is usually very late at night because i dont trust other drivers' abilites in the fog. and finally, I really like driving in the fog in a place where I know like the palm of my hand (freeways excluded of course), because it feels completely new and different. I understand your concern, and thank you for it
